About this property

Nothing beats Ocean Front

There really is nothing like being ocean front. A beach holiday is always nice but the difference from being a few streets away from the ocean and being ocean front is really like being miles apart. This is an opportunity to be ocean front in South Mission Beach one of the premiere locations any where in the world and our location is away from the large car parks where the beach gets crowded. Many days at our house you'll feel like you are on a private beach. Treat your family to an OCEAN FRONT holiday and you'll never want to stay anywhere else.

Comfortable one bedroom apartment directly on the ocean front, direct ocean views from the living room and kitchen. Located in a quiet area in South Mission Beach but only a five minute walk to the attractions at Belmont Park.

Just a block away you'll find a off-licence, a supermarket, a coffee shop, a pizzeria, a bar & grill and take out Mexican food.

A maximum of four people are allowed on the property at any one time. Please no events or parties. Great for a small family or a couples getaway.

Inside direct ocean view from the living room and kitchen. Fully furnished kitchen. DirectTV and free WIFI access. Simmons Beautyrest Heavenly King Bed with an adjustable base in the bedroom and queen memory foam sleeper sofa in the living room. All linens provided. New laminate flooring in the living room and bedroom, tile in the kitchen and bathroom.

Outside step onto the beach or enjoy the patio with a table, chairs, loungers and umbrellas. BBQ on gas grill while enjoying the ocean views.

Onsite outside parking for one medium sized vehicle. (large vehicles like a Suburban will fit but it's tight)

We're a five minute drive from Sea World, a 20 minute drive to the world famous San Diego Zoo and about 40 minutes to Lego Land. San Diego is home to many golf courses including Torrey Pines about 30 minutes away.

This property is perfect for a couple's getaway! Being right on the beach means not worrying about parking and dragging things to the beach. We loved morning coffee and sunset cocktails on the patio, people watching and enjoying the weather. The unit is exactly as described, pictures are accurate. Being south of the Belmont Park area means it's a little more quiet, but you're close to the action if you want to do that too. Larry is awesome to work with. We'll definitely be back!

The location is perfect - right on the boardwalk! Located on the southern half of the boardwalk, where it's more residential and quieter. The owner was responsive throughout the process. The kitchen was well stocked. The king-size bed was very comfy. It was a good value. Would stay here again.

The host was welcoming. I assume he lives nearby because he was very thoughtful and sent messages just in case we forgot things outside so nothing would happen to them. The place is a little dated but the views more than make up for it. I would definitely stay again.

Easy communication from host, Wonderful location!Great access to the boardwalk,beach, coffee shop and Belmont Park. Parking was tricky at first: tight turn, high curb and very close to the building. When the neighbor’s truck was not in the adjacent space, it was easier. Bed was comfortable and the beach toys appreciated!!Simple, straightforward beach life!We would go back!

The condo had a great location with an excellent view of the beach, We were disappointed with the accommodation. Although it was clean and the bed was comfortable, the rooms showed their age. We also had a noisy group in the condo above us. They came in at 3 am dragging their luggage and loudly walking around. At this condo, you are definitely paying for the location and the view not the rooms.
